Effective team processes for technology internalisation with special emphasis on knowledge management: successful late starter, Samsung case

Knowledge management, especially in technological innovation, is becoming the most important organisational activity for the long-term success of a firm and related conceptual and empirical research is increasing rapidly. However, little empirical research into effective team processes has been undertaken, taking into account moderating factors to knowledge management in the context of a late starter. This study analyses the moderating influence of the technology internalisation mode between effective team processes and performance of technology internalisation by investigating 14 technology development projects of Samsung, renowned worldwide as a successful late starter. According to multiple case studies, results of the analyses suggest three team processes that we derive theoretically and empirically – team building, information seeking, and problem solving have a positive impact on technology internalisation. Also, the results suggest that the importance of the team building and information seeking process varies with technology internalisation modes. Furthermore, it is shown that effective problem solving styles are different along technology internalisation modes.

Past waste disposal practices at a California coastal site resulted in a groundwater plume containing CVOCs (mainly chlorinated ethenes [CEs] and 1,1-dichloroethane) migrating offshore towards a marine harbor. CVOCs are present in the sediment porewater adjacent to the shoreline, but concentrations decreased significantly between 2000 and 2015, and NA in the marine sediments was suspected. To confirm NA, SiREM performed a laboratory treatability study for Geosyntec Consultants Inc. to evaluate biotic and abiotic...

Small-scale wastewater treatment plants (SWTPs) are widely used as decentralized wastewater treatment systems in sparsely populated areas of Japan. Iron electrolysis, an electrocoagulation technology, is installed in these SWTPs for phosphorus removal. Phosphorus can be removed via the formation of an insoluble compound containing phosphate and iron, such as FePO4; however, it was necessary to determine the conditions under which phosphorus can be effectively and stably removed in actual SWTPs. According to...

The presence of antibiotics in drinking water and wastewater has not been widely studied because the sanitary engineering sector mainly focuses on the removal of organic matter and nutrients. There is a lack of environmental regulations for pollutants like antibiotics. Batch tests analyse biodegradability to measure the anaerobic degradation potential of the substrate, or they can be used as toxicity tests. Oxytetracycline, florfenicol (FLO), ceftiofur (CEF) and penicillin G (PEN), commonly used in Colombia for...
